It doesn't matter if you're still an Xbox Live Gold subscriber.
You can read about the games below.
Call of Cthulhu
Private Investigator Pierce is sent to look into the tragic death of the Hawkins family. Plunge into a world of creeping madness and cosmic horror. Cryptic clues, shadowy figures, and pure terror bar your way as you fight to retain your sanity and solve an otherworldly mystery.
Fable Heroes
Fable Heroes is a fresh spin on the beloved Fable franchise in which up to four players play both cooperatively and competitively in this hack-and-slash adventure. Work together as heroes of Albion to defeat familiar foes and new enemies while collecting as many gold coins as possible to unlock upgrades, characters, and more.
Star Wars: Battlefront
Fight on the front lines where every weapon and vehicle is yours. And now for the first time, Star Wars Battlefront II lets you. Fight as a Jedi. Earn the ability to wield a lightsaber and use Force powers like Yoda, Darth Vader, and many other Heroes and Villains. Battle in Space in X-wings, TIE fighters, Jedi Starfighters, and other classic starships, or land your ship on a Star Destroyer and fight it out on foot aboard enemy ships.
TT Isle of Man
For bikers, there are two types of speed races: the Isle of Man TT and the rest. No race is more difficult. Take up the challenge of the legendary Snaefell Mountain course.
All of these are great games, but we're partial to the original Star Wars: Battlefront. It's just fantastic!
